What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Full Cost of War Act," changes how the government handles military actions. It requires that any new authorization for the use of military force or declaration of war must also include an authorization of appropriations for the Department of Veterans Affairs. These funds would cover necessary costs for veterans resulting from the military activity. The specific sums required would be jointly determined by the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Veterans Affairs.
